BricksNorth where: Downtown Toronto, Ontario Canada at the Delta Chelsea Hotel. when: August 25-28th, 2011

Hello everybody!!

Some of you may have heard that Canada will be getting a LEGO fan convention in 2011 called BricksNorth. I am so pleased to be able to be a part of such a worthwhile enterprise!! I sure hope I can pull this off as Canada has many challenges...as does my schedule! But I am fortunate to have the help of many terrific local AFOLs and the advice of my esteemed fellow North American event coordinators so I’m not too worried. (yet!)

I do have a very very full plate lately and it is of the utmost importance that the BricksNorth website gets put up very soon. So many people seem want to get on the attendance list and I’d like to give them that opportunity as soon as possible. To do so I need your help to get a LOGO designed for the event.

Here’s what I propose! I need ideas from you all. Anyone who submits the chosen idea for the BricksNorth logo will win a $50 gift certificate to be used in my BrickLink store www.thebrickchick.com. IF the winning idea is submitted as finished artwork that needs little revising then the prize increases to $100 to spend in my store. So bring on your imaginative ideas!! I need them desperately so I can get things rolling.


Not much has been decided outside of the dates and venue for this event so it’s wide open to whatever you think this should be. Canadian is an important consideration of course...and the location is Toronto but that needs not play a big role.

The deadline for submissions is Monday June 14th at midnight EST so that my right hand man Jeff Van Winden and I can discuss the results for ten hours on our drive to BrickWorld the following day. LOL

Good luck everyone! And feel free to pass this around or post it to any other forums/groups you frequent. Anything you can do to help is very very much appreciated.

Hey Jeff!

That IS great news!

While Toronto might be the hub of Canada...

Moncton is the hub of... the Maritimes

We have an international airport, you know! And we had AC/DC in concert last year, sooo...

Nope, I’m NOT jealous! Just that is 16 hours of drive!

So you will just have to leave the east coast a day earlier... Or... Hop on a plain at your international airport and fly in... I think I recall hearing that Porter is flying between Moncton and The Toronto Island Airport now...

I misread this post and booked off the end of August of this year.

Now I have to wait until January to book off the real dates.

I am looking forward to this.

Cheers,

Jude

Actually they chose Toronto a long while ago for a Lego fan convention. But they weren’t sure if they could handle the crowds and security so they decided on hosting the G20 & G8 meetings to see if they are up to the task :))
